October is a wonderful time to visit! We will be there that week, too! We have been in Oct. 5 of the last 6 years (tried June once to avoid missing football games--never again!) and the weather has been everywhere from record heat waves to record cold fronts, so you have to be prepared for any type of weather. If you can do the Halloween party, I highly recommend it.

You'll find tons of great info on this site. Enjoy!
